My excruciation.

A good dose of fashion, a bit of randomness and loads of escaping.

Chic!

Menswear F/W 2012

Haven’t had the time/inspiration to fashion blog lately, been busy on other projects. And winter just isn’t as inspiring as brighter seasons. 

Burberry is amazing as usual. Their comeback from a grandpa-ish old school dusty house to a stylish, digital brand is mesmerizing. For this season I particularly like the arrangement of a short coat/jacket on a longer suit jacket. Kinda awkward when you think about it, but so cool on Burberry’srunway. Definitely my dig of this season. 

Second look is pretty cool too. Stylish, casual gentleman.

Finally Louis Vuitton has shown pretty good stuff too. I’m always amazed at how Louis Vuitton is always about bags, monogram prints and blingbling gear. Their clothes lines are just a promotion tool to sell even more leather goods. But it’s a damn good-looking promotion set. LVMH has never reported detailed figures for Louis Vuitton, but I’m growing very curious about how much they take home. 

By the way, LVMH 2011 numbers will be out Feb 2. Looking at what others have reported, it should be another blowout. And I own a few shares from these guys.
